What should be the order of loving people? Can I love my spouse more than the Companions, more than Hz. Khadijah?

The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
First of all, it is necessary to attract attention to this issue: The criterion for loving a great person in Islam is to try to resemble him. If we try to practice Islam like that person, it means we love him. If we do not try to practice Islam like that person, it means we do not really love him.
In that case, it is not essential to decrease your love toward your spouse. What is essential is to increase your love toward the great people of Islam.
We, Muslims, love the Prophet (pbuh), the four caliphs, Ahl al-Bayt and all Companions on behalf of Allah, because Allah loves them and because He wants us to love them.
